Comment (by foxdie):

 Okay, testing with the following director:

 director myDirector random {
         {
                 .backend = ServerA;
                 .weight = 5;
         }
         {
                 .backend = ServerB;
                 .weight = 4;
         }
         {
                 .backend = ServerC;
                 .weight = 5;
         }
 }

 Only ServerC received requests in this test.

 My guess is its probably not an index problem now, its probably a
 weighting bug, where the last backend in the list is grossly outweighting
 every other backend, I could be mistaken but at least it gives the
 developers an avenue to inspect.
